Dermatologists, what are some surprising habits that are hurting your skin, i.e. skipping SPF, smoking, alcohol, taking too hot showers, picking, etc.? I'm especially looking for anything in particular that men are more guilty of than women, or that impact men more than women. With summer coming up, some of them can be around sun care, but this should also apply to people year-round. Please send expert responses from certified dermatologists (including the habit and an explanation of why it hurts your skin) directly in response to this prompt. Thank you!
